Shia LeBeouf, professional plagiarist

So you may have heard that Shia LaBeouf, twitchy star of Transformers, directed a film. And that he also stole the story directly from a comicbook.

Like, to the extent that the panels of the comic might as well have been the storyboards the movie was shot from. Buzzfeed has the whole story in case you've missed it, including quotes from creator Daniel Clowes and examples of the parallels between the book and the movie. In fact, you can even watch the whole film (it's only about 11 minutes long) on their site, so go do it.

Anyway, once you watch the film at Buzzfeed, you can read the comic in its entirety thanks to some random Tumblr user. And if you're interested in more of Daniel Clowes' work, like Ghost World, remember that we are more than happy to order them for you - just come in and ask.
